RE: Frozen in a Risk Position

Yeah that's not the kind of baking I was talking about but, suddenly, and unsurprisingly, I sure am hungry.

I have two daughters, much older. Might be a grandfather before I'm 50 so yeah, a line that stuck with me ever since I heard it, "Happiness only real when shared." Chris McCandless said that. An interesting human.

Where is the risk? Well, I think, like a game, we only get so many lives. Can burn through a couple testing things out but eventually you get down to those last few, and that's when it's time to get down to brass tacks and finish the game.

Or like a bouncy ball. Eventually the momentum is lost. Of course people don't want that to happen but part of me thinks it's a universal law and applies to everything.

Sort:  

but, suddenly, and unsurprisingly, I sure am hungry.

:D

The bouncy ball is the one that connects the most with me - the "universal law" of it sounds about right. Energy only stays in a form for so long, before it moves onto something else.

Yeah dude. Peaks and valleys, they say. After enough experience with struggles in life I'm starting to think there truly is no bottom. One is just in the moment, and it's shitty, but it could be worse; and I've experienced worse. Sure I could sit there and compare, find the shittiest of all, but they were all shitty, regardless.

Since there's no bottom, there's no top. Best day of my life was overpowered by, that other good day. Once again you're in the moment with plenty of room to go in either direction, regardless of standing.

It's strange though because if you think you're at the top, there's only one place to go and that's down. Think you're at the bottom, the only place to go is up. Moral of the story is: Never convince yourself you're done.

Can you tell I'm stoned?

Can you tell I'm stoned?

No more than normal.

The "top and bottom" of life is interesting as, there really is neither, until the bitter end, or that glorious end - whichever way it goes. I assume that heaven is BS, because we are human and no matter how perfect it is, it'd never be perfect enough for us, meaning that it can't be heaven.

I think heaven is described as the opposite of jail, so be good or you're going to jail.

Don't need to die to experience the good life. That's all they're trying to say.

As for that final day, when those eyes close, man, you start dreaming.

Go to sleep at night, what happens? An entire world to explore inside your head, and no concept of time. I've lived entire weeks inside there only to wake up and it's twenty minutes later and I missed my show.

That final dream will feel like an eternity. Won't even know you're gone. And some people have nightmares, I guess.

I am hoping it is fade to black and that is it - not because I don't want to explore more, but perhaps, I need the rest.

I want to upload my brain into a, technological advancement yet to be named. Live until the power goes out. Watch videos and stuff. Text people from the grave.
